I picked up Wolfsmund because I am having so much fun reading Vinland Saga and I thought I’d try another historical graphic novel series. This one is set during the Middle Ages, at St. Gotthard Pass, which is located in the Swiss Alps. Baliff Wolfram brutally exposes and executes those desperate enough to try to sneak into Italy through his barrier station. He’s a sick SOB, too, taking pleasure in taunting his victims while savagely punishing them for their transgressions. A rebellion is afoot, and the Austrians are ruthlessly responding to the unrest by killing entire clans if a rebel is discovered in their midst. Ugh.
